Chris' dinner with Chief Justice Roberts of the United States Supreme Court

Chief Justice John Roberts of the United States Supreme Court came to little Moscow, ID for the centenial of the law school which also happens to be the bicentennial of Abraham Lincoln's birthday. Chris and I both got to attend a lecture that he gave about Abraham Lincoln. There was a question and answer period where only one crazy showed up to. Chris also go to attend a dinner with him and sat just 3 feet away. He is quite the family man and said, "If you want to spend time with your young children, you have to do it while they are young."

Olivia's First Birthday

Olivia's first birthday was special because Grandma Paula came up to see her. We were honored she traveled so far just for that! We had a Tinkerbell party even though her father wanted to have a Miss Piggy or howler monkey party instead. Mommy made a little twist on "Pin the Tail on the Donkey" and we did "Pin the Wand on Tinkerbell." We had cake and of course Livy's favorite dish, ice-cream. We knew that she wouldn't be shy about eating cake or ice cream and she wasn't. We liked her Steven Tyler impression when she was eating the ice cream. We loved to spend that very special day with her and remember the day the she first joined our family. She got toys and clothes from Mom and Dad and the same from grandmas and cousins.
